York, as well as other partially green varieties, is scald- 
ing when held late in storage. The Yorking has never 
been known to scald. 
6. Apparently More Prolific—Because of having a larger 
leaf and more feeding capacity, it appears that the 
Yorking tree is going to be more productive, the fruit 
being uniform in size and in large volume. 
7. Protected by U. S. Patent—The tremendous popular- 
ity of the Yorking will naturally bring claims of having 
something “‘Just as Good.” However, the Yorking being 
a patented variety (U. S. Patent No. 125), you are 
protected when you insist on Yorking, rejecting any 
so-called “‘Just as Good”’ offered as Red Yorks.

Senator Byrd also stated in addressing fruit growers at his 1947 Annual Picnic that 
he finds YORKING the most desirable of the strains of Red Yorks he has tested. 
A Whole Apple Orchard on a Single Tree! 
S-In-1 TREE 
Such a tree is made possible by grafting with varieties from the earliest to the latest. 
An ideal tree where space can accommodate only one, two or three trees. The varieties 
grafted on 5-In-1 Trees will vary, but most generally consist of Yellow Transparent, 
Summer Rambo, Stayman Winesap, and Delicious. 
5-In-1 Trees are offered only in 2 yr., 4-6 ft. size at $3.50 each 
4-In-1 TREE 
4-In-1 Trees are produced in the same manner as the 5-In-1, serving the same purpose, 
but having one less number of varieties. These Multiple Variety Trees are not only prac- 
tical for the home garden or lawn, but are new, interesting and the average grower takes 
pride in showing them to his friends. 
2 yr., 4-6 ft. size at $3.00 each 
3-In-1 TREE 
Consists of three choice varieties, ripening at different seasons, furnishing fresh fruit 
over a longer period at very little extra cost. Multiple Variety Trees are usually more 
prolific than trees of a single variety as they provide excellent cross pollination. 
2 yr., 4-6 ft. size at $2.50 each

MASSACHUSETTS TRUENESS-TO-NAME INSPECTION SERVICE 
Amherst, Mass., July 28, 1949 
To Whom it May Concern: 
All of the apple, except one-year grafts and transplants, varieties propagated and now 
growing in the Waynesboro Nurseries, Waynesboro, Virginia, have been examined by the 
Massachusetts Trueness-to-Name Inspection Service. To the best of our knowledge, these 
trees are true to name as they now stand in the nursery row.

NOTE: Above inspection covers all salable Apple Trees in our Nursery, except the one-year 
grafts too small to offer this season and transplants not yet salable.
